One of the most recognisable ceramic products is the Mexican Talavera tiles that enclose classic Spanish style, Moorish heritage and Mexican creativity. If you are looking for a bright, colorful and striking design for the kitchen, bathroom, lobby or garden, our beautifully crafted handmade tiles will not disappoint you.

Even though the oldest pottery pieces from Mesoamerica are 4500 years old and all the ethnic groups from Mexico had elaborated decorative items made of clay, the origin of the Mexican Talavera tiles coincides with the encounter between the endemic population of Mexico with Spanish conquerors. Spain was the country that had the biggest impact on what is today known as Talavera ceramic from Mexico. The Spanish monks had spread the technology of the potter’s wheel, the enclosed kiln, lead glazes, pigments extracted from metal oxides around the native people of Mexico. From this encounter, the local pottery artists started to create their own version of classic Talavera tiles that represents Mexican symbols and designs unknown to Europeans. Due to this clash of cultures, today we are still able to purchase the most stunning handmade tiles that enhance the Southern feel in its finest version. If you have a look at our collections of kitchen tile murals, Mexican tiles and high relief tiles, you will discover thousands of unique designs in all kinds of color combinations. This impressive versatility gives endless decorative options for homeowners and interior designers.

The decorative Talavera tiles are made of a mixture of three different clays found in the state of Guanajuato in the vicinity of Dolores Hidalgo used for forming the tiles. Once they are dry they are handcrafted with many different patterns or plain colors. Being a durable material, our ceramic tiles have a lot of application in decorating both interior and exterior of houses in the USA and Canada. If you want to create a Hacienda or Colonial style in your home or just simply add some rustic feel to your interiors, the Talavera tiles are the best and easiest way to do it. They can work as a surprising accent to go with more contemporary applications made in a more neutral color palette. Mexican venues such as restaurants and bars can also benefit from our Mexican Talavera tiles.

Most interior designers and developers will just blatantly advise small bathroom owners to go for a shower option instead of a bathtub. They value practicality over creating a unique style that reflects the taste of the homeowner.

Farmhouse copper kitchen sinks are a marvellous way to reflect personal style and create a bold statement in neutral, monochromatic kitchens. They are a great fit in a rustic environment, but many designers incorporate them as well in contemporary decors to bring warmer tones and antique-looking contrast. In that case, you can choose a sleek and simple model that will offer a slightly more contemporary feeling. Independently of their style, farmhouse, kitchen sinks offer hassle-free installation, effortless care, and a lifetime warranty. Therefore, if a large, deep sink basin works best for your cooking and dishwashing style, an apron-front sink could be the most practical choice for you, no matter your home decor style. However, there are some additional factors to consider. As with the majority of types of sinks, farmhouse copper sinks come in both single- and double-bowl designs. The decision between those two options would be based on family habits and daily activity in the kitchen. We recommend our clients t take into consideration the way they cook and dish wash. You should ask yourself a question if you do a lot of food prep in your sink? A large single-bowl sink could be the right choice. Do you like to start washing the dishes while dinner is cooking? A copper double-basin sink that lets you wash dishes on one side without disturbing the rinsed salad greens on the other side could be for you. Additionally, one of the compartment might be bigger than the other so you can have two bowls but still plenty of space for your dishes. For a coherent look, add copper hardware such as pull-knobs and other kitchen accessories to emphasize this metallic look

In the past handmade, farmhouse copper sinks were not the usual choice for kitchens and bathrooms. The biggest fear among the homeowners was that the sink will oxidize with the use. However, it is just a misunderstanding. Although contact with minerals found in water can indeed cause changes in the original copper color, periodical maintenance doesn't let that happen. Copper has a natural way of protecting itself from that process by creating a natural patina. On the other side, if what you actually like is this oxidized effect, we can fabricate greenish patina copper sinks if you wish. There would be extra cost because of treatment to achieve a permanent effect.
